A week has passed since the Oilers finished their worst season ever. I know statistically they had more points than the 1993 team, but there was no shootouts then, so let’s not argue semantics. This season sucked worse than any other, plain and simple.

The Oilers’ relationship with their star players the last few years has not been without a few bumps along the way, and perhaps that’s the reason I find myself worrying about how things are between the team and Ales Hemsky.

Yes, the playoffs have already begun and the internet is awash of teams looking "to avoid being down 2-0 in their series." Yes, the best time to have launched a playoff draft would have been on Tuesday. But in true OilersNation "always a step behind but trying reeeeeeally reaally hard" fashion we present our OilersNation playoff draft sponsored by The Pint. So consider the fact that there has already been a game played our present to you.

I did this article last summer when people were wondering how durable new signing Nikolai Khabibulin was relative to the average starting goaltender. In yesterday’s piece, I was told that Khabibulin shouldn’t be considered injury-prone, since he’s only had one major injury in the last five years. I disagree, and I have proof.
